- [the old lady takes off her hat and then pulls off her face]
- Corinne von Merkens: It really smells of glue. Though she insists it's all synthetic. But regular glue is what it is. She doesn't fool me.

- Old Lady with Hat: Don't look so frightened, dear child. I'm not dangerous. Give me your hand. Well? Can you feel my hand now? My fingers, the veins under my skin. At my age, the hands are a bit cold. I'm 216 years old after all. No, what am I saying? 76, I mean. No, I better move on. Wait! What was it I was going to say? Yes, now I remember. In his black satchel under the bed, is his sketchbook with the drawings... He wants to tear them up. Tell him not to do it. And one more thing. He hides his diary in that same satchel. Read it.
